Paul Williams, MD

"Dr. Williams spent 8 years during his formative years in Taiwan and India watching his father, a Family Physician in Centralia for over 30 years, making a difference in people’s lives. It was because of this experience and his own experiences in medical school, that he went into Family Practice. Dr. Williams finds great satisfaction in helping people through all stages of life in dealing with their health concerns, and enjoys seeing the whole family and being part of his patient’s lives over the years. His sensitivity to his patients’ struggle with the affordability and accessibility of medical care is what drove his decision to open Washington Park Direct Care. Dr. Williams and his wife Theresa have four children, three boys and a daughter."

"THE DIRECT CARE DIFFERENCE We’re a direct primary care practice. Ultimately, that means we get to spend more time with you, whenever you need it, without having to jump through the hoops of a traditional medical practice. We love it, and we think you will, too. FEWER PATIENTS = MORE TIME FOR YOU Because we limit the number of patients we see, that opens up our schedule to be available when you need us – no matter what time of the day, or part of the week. INSURANCE FREE = HASSLE FREE We don’t accept insurance. But don’t let that scare you, because most of our patients can actually save money as Direct Care members. Insurance is still important for major accidents or procedures, but for most preventive and routine procedures and tests, the direct care model can save you money. We can help you find the combination of services that saves you money and results in better quality care. A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR PERSONAL PHYSICIAN If you miss the good old days where your doctor did house calls and treated you like a respected individual…then you’ll be thrilled to join Direct Care. We view the patient-physician relationship as a team of equals with a single focus to help you reach your health care goals. We’re diligently working to change the face of family medicine to one that is uniquely focused on the patient. We desire to see fewer patients in the name of high-end medical care. We believe the best medical treatment comes from from one-on-one interaction, so we’re eliminating the middle man and inviting you into our family. As a member of Direct Care, here are a few of the benefits you’ll enjoy: >Personalized care tailored to your comfort level. >A physician who knows your story inside and out. >Same-day scheduling with minimal wait times and extended visits of up to an hour if needed. >Quality time with your doctor; ask all the questions you want…we actually want you to! >Your doctor’s cell phone number – that’s what we call personal service. >Inexpensive and direct service – we work directly with you instead of hassling with insurance."
